Both competing forces in this model are intimately linked through the endothelial cytoskeleton, a complex network of actin microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments, which combine to ...

A joint research team from the LKS Faculty of Medicine (HKUMed) and the Faculty of Science at the University of Hong Kong has uncovered an unexpected interaction between chemotherapeutic agents and a ...

The long tail of a sperm cell, the finger-like cilia in the lungs, and the long axons of nerves are all built with microtubules—basic building blocks of the cell’s cytoskeleton. These structures are a ...

Microtubules are cylindrical polymers composed of alpha and beta tubulin. They are a major component of the cytoskeleton and mediate crucial cellular functions including formation of the mitotic ...

Of note, a second substitution at this same residue in TUBB2B, TUBB2B E421K, was reported in a dominant family with CFEOM and polymicrogyria and, in yeast, the variant stabilized microtubules and ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics ...

There are a significant number of words, phrases and acronyms that appear when talking about race and ethnicity which often change depending on the context of the conversation. Language is ...
